I've just installed Lubuntu after some troublesome experiences with Ubuntu (Wine not working with essential legacy app, dvb-tv not working after hours of research after upgrade etc). Like Lubuntu a lot but I'm getting the LibreOffice freeze every day now and I've just lost a hours' work due to corrupt file. (Forgot to set auto backup in my new install).
The point is that this is now a show-stopper for me as I've learned that using terminal based 'fixes' is a no-no. Is there an OFFICIAL fix for this ? I'm trying to find out how to install FLuxbox which I've used before and like - is there anyone who uses Fluxbox and LibreOffice regularly who can affirm that it works OK? I only use 3-4 spreadsheets at a time and believe that it has occurred when only a single worksheet has been up but I had been working in and out of several - not particularly demanding usage pattern. Can't believe that this issue is still 'in the air' as it is a fundamental problem and perhaps it should have visibility for those contemplating using Lubuntu with Libre Office. Tried to install OpenOffice to see if that work OK but can't get it loaded via Synaptic - will OpenOffice overcome this problem? As far as Abiword, Gnumeric being the reason that this problem wasn't spotted during testing, I would have thought a lot of users would wish to use either OpenOffice or LibreOffice as a lot of the functionality of these is not present in those basic (but good) apps. It's easy to recreate - just open a few spreadsheets, do some work and it'll happen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/800297 Title: lxpanel freezes when many programs are open and lxpanel is being used To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/lxpanel/+bug/800297/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
